Outline of Final Research Achievements |
There has been an increase in patients who develop food allergies, as well as an increase in patients who exhibit allergy symptoms to plant seeds, which are widely used as food materials. In the present study, we identified structural regions of proteins that are important for allergy symptoms in soybean, a major cause of food allergies, and also found structural features of epitopes involved in allergy symptoms.
